Effect of Balloon-Dilated Restenosis on Exercise Performance and Cardiac Function in Children After Coarctation Repair.
Pediatr Cardiol
January 2025
Department of Cardiac Surgery, University Hospital of Gent, Corneel Heymanslaan 10, 9000, Ghent, Belgium.
Restenosis occurs commonly after aortic coarctation (CoA) repair, usually requiring treatment by balloon dilation. Its effect on physical exercise performance is not documented. A retrospective analysis of exercise testing and echocardiographic assessment was performed in children after CoA repair.

With the advancement in imaging technology, ECG-gated cardiac multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) has emerged as a tool for the anatomic evaluation of the pulmonary valve and right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) in human medicine. Currently, the evaluation of the pulmonary valve relies primarily on echocardiographic examination. However, the bi-dimensional nature of this technique and the location/orientation of the pulmonary valve in the thoracic cavity can pose challenges.

Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Disease, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Critical Care Echocardiography (CCE) is now established as an important tool in the intensive care unit (ICU). This paper aims to examine the expanding role of cardiovascular ultrasound in the ICU, focusing on its applications, benefits, and challenges, while highlighting recent advancements shaping the future of critical care echocardiography.
Recent Findings: Non-invasive echocardiographic measurement of hemodynamic parameters including stroke volume, cardiac output, left ventricular filling pressures, and pulmonary pressures have been well-validated against invasive measurements.
Longitudinal cardiac imaging for assessment of myocardial injury in non-hospitalised community-dwelling individuals after COVID-19 infection: the Rotterdam Study.
Heart
January 2025
Epidemiology, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Rotterdam, Netherlands
Background: The aim of this study was to assess the presence of myocardial injury after COVID-19 infection and to evaluate the relation between persistent cardiac symptoms after COVID-19 and myocardial function in participants with known cardiovascular health status before infection.
Methods: In the prospective population-based Rotterdam Study cohort, echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) were performed among participants who recovered from COVID-19 at home within 2 years prior to inclusion in the current study. Persistent cardiac symptoms comprised only self-reported symptoms of chest pain, dyspnoea or palpitations lasting >4 weeks after COVID-19 infection.
Percutaneous Balloon Pericardiotomy: A Safe and Effective Approach for Managing Recurrent Massive Pericardial Effusion.
Angiology
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Faculty of Medicine, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey.
Percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy (PBP) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to surgical interventions for recurrent severe pericardial effusion (PE), particularly in patients with malignancies. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of PBP in patients with recurrent severe PE. A total of 42 patients with recurrent severe PE underwent PBP between March 2008 and July 2024.
